OPSEC - Navy Operations Security

Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.

DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.

DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Comment by Jackie on June 26, 2013 at 9:17pm: so how often do they call from bc? is there a certain time of day?

Comment by Abilynn on June 26, 2013 at 5:09pm: Found this site today! My daughter leaves for BC Aug. 5th. I seem to be cycling through the whole range of emotions, you name it and I'VE felt it! But certainly pride above all else. She laughed when I told her about finding this online resource and I have really appreciated the effort others before us have put forth to help guide us as we travel down this exciting and challenging road ahead.
